Wei Che looked at Su Huaiyue without any hesitation in his eyes, and said seriously: "If it was given by someone else, I would naturally not do this. But this is given by you, I believe you."
At this time, the night enveloped the Wei family's yard. Everything was silent, with only the breeze blowing gently and the leaves rustling.
The moonlight was like water, sprinkling on the ground, as if covered with a layer of silver frost, making the entire yard look like a dream.
Wei Che's words seemed particularly clear in the silent night, and every word was like a heavy hammer, hitting Su Huaiyue's heart.
She looked up and saw Wei Che in the moonlight, his eyes bright and deep, as if hiding thousands of stars.
The trust revealed in that look made Su Huaiyue's heart tremble slightly, and a different feeling quietly spread in her heart.
Su Huaiyue subconsciously wanted to look away, but at this moment, the look of Madam Wei who wanted to say something but hesitated suddenly appeared in her mind, and those words seemed to still echo in her ears.
She was startled and tried to suppress the panic in her heart. She raised her hand and gently patted Wei Che's shoulder with the gesture of an elder. She forced a relieved smile on her face and said, "This is how a family should be. If your eldest brother could see you now and see what our Wei family is like now, he would definitely be very happy."
When Wei Che heard this, his eyes dimmed instantly, like a star covered by dark clouds, its light no longer shining.
He forced a smile and agreed, "Yeah... Big Brother will definitely be happy."
After Su Huaiyue told Wei Che to rest early, she turned and left.
Her steps were a little heavy. After returning to her yard, she sat on the stone bench and stared blankly at the night sky.
The moonlight shone on her, outlining her slightly lonely figure.
Her mind was full of thoughts, thinking about the various experiences she had after coming to this world, from the difficulties she faced when she first arrived at the Wei family to now gradually gaining a foothold in Youzhou, every step was full of hardships.
She didn't know how to go on in the future, and how to deal with the vague feelings between her and Wei Che.
Just then, the sound of brisk footsteps broke the silence.
Wei Yunrou came over holding a pot of fine wine and humming a little tune.
She saw Su Huaiyue sitting on the stone bench in a daze, her eyes lit up, and she said, "Sister-in-law, you haven't slept either! I'm so excited that I can't sleep. Thinking that the beauty shop will open tomorrow, let's have a drink together to celebrate!"
Su Huaiyue looked at Wei Yunrou's excited expression, smiled slightly, and said without refusing, "Okay, Yunrou, let's have a few drinks."
The two sat down on the stone bench. Wei Yunrou couldn't wait to fill two glasses of wine. She handed one to Su Huaiyue and picked up one for herself. She said, "Sister-in-law, I toast to you. I hope our beauty shop will open with good luck tomorrow and business will be booming!"
After saying that, he tilted his head back and drank the wine in the glass.
Su Huaiyue couldn't help but smile at Wei Yunrou's generous look, and took a sip of wine.
After three rounds of drinks, Wei Yunrou's cheeks gradually turned red and her eyes became a little blurred.
She started talking more and more, shouting loudly, "Sister-in-law, our beauty shop will definitely flourish in Youzhou in the future! I want everyone to know that even if the Wei family is exiled, we can still live a good life and achieve great success!"
As she spoke, she waved her arms, looking like a carefree young boy, in stark contrast to her usual gentle appearance.
Su Huaiyue looked at Wei Yunrou, her eyes full of gentle smiles. She gently patted Wei Yunrou's hand and said, "Okay, sister-in-law believes in you, we can definitely do it."
Wei Yunrou was stunned when she saw Su Huaiyue's smile. She murmured, "Sister-in-law, you are so beautiful when you smile. You are like a fairy descending to earth."
As she spoke, her eyes suddenly turned red, and her voice was choked with sobs: "Sister-in-law, you are so unlucky. You have to take care of our entire Wei family, but you don't get any care in return. We are too ignorant..."
Su Huaiyue felt warm in her heart when she heard Wei Yunrou's words, and she quickly comforted her: "Yunrou, don't say that. We are a family, and we should take care of each other."
Wei Yunrou seemed not to have heard Su Huaiyue's words. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. She leaned close to Su Huaiyue and said mysteriously, "Sister-in-law, do you know? I found that the way Brother Wei Che looks at you is so gentle. It's as if... as if Brother's soul has possessed him to see you!"
After she finished speaking, she tilted her body and fell directly onto the stone bench, falling into a deep sleep.
Su Huaiyue was shocked when she heard Wei Yunrou's words. Her face flushed. She looked around in panic, afraid that others would hear her.
Su Huaiyue looked around in panic, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that no one had heard what Wei Yunrou said.
She gently shook Wei Yunrou, trying to wake her up, but Wei Yunrou was already drunk and unconscious, mumbling some unclear talk in her sleep from time to time.
Su Huaiyue sighed helplessly, helped her up with great effort, and walked towards the room.
Along the way, Wei Yunrou's words kept echoing in her mind, making her upset.
After settling Wei Yunrou down, Su Huaiyue returned to her room and lay on the bed, but couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
Wei Yunrou's words were like a thorn that pierced her heart, forcing her to once again face her unspeakable feelings for Wei Che.
She looked at the ceiling of the bed, her eyes empty and her thoughts drifting away.
She knew very well that in this feudal era, her relationship with Wei Che was not tolerated by the secular world, and ethical principles were like an insurmountable mountain standing between them.
But when it comes to feelings, how can you control them just by saying so?
It was unknown how long it took before Su Huaiyue fell asleep in a half-awake state.
Early the next morning, she was awakened by the noise outside the window.
Thinking that today was the opening day of the Beauty Pavilion, she immediately came to her senses, packed up briefly, and hurried out of the room.
Everyone in the Wei family had already been waiting in the yard. They were all wearing new clothes, with expectant smiles on their faces.
Su Huaiyue saw that Wei Che was there too, and their eyes met, then quickly looked away, both of them feeling a little uncomfortable.
Wei Che dressed up specially today, wearing a moon-white robe and a green ribbon around his waist, making him look even more handsome and upright.
He looked at Su Huaiyue, nodded slightly, and said, "Sister-in-law, everything is ready, let's go."
When everyone arrived at Meiyan Pavilion, they saw that the entrance of the shop was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, making it look particularly festive.
Jing Zhiwan arrived early with a group of friends. She searched the crowd eagerly, and the moment she saw Wei Che, her eyes lit up with surprise.
Her face flushed slightly as she quickly walked to Wei Che's side and said softly, "Mr. Wei, long time no see. I brought a lot of friends to Meiyan Pavilion today to show my support."
